We look at our bars as the first and easiest step on the path toward more Mediterranean living. If people enjoy the bars and connect them to the Mediterranean Diet, we hope they’ll begin to adopt other Mediterranean food and lifestyle choices as well. We even wrote a short book describing those lifestyle changes.

To us, SimpleMD protein bars represent something more than a vehicle for olive oil and red wine. They represent the beginning of a journey toward improved health and happiness. To us, they represent better living; and hopefully for you, they will too.

The Mediterranean Diet, IN THE PALM OF YOUR HAND
The foundation of SimpleMD is the tried and true principles of the Mediterranean Diet, a daily food regimen that emphasizes natural ingredients, whole grains and nuts, and the liberal use of extra virgin olive oil and red wine.

It may be obvious, but healthy foods are only good for you if you eat them! We know that sometimes it can be challenging to prepare a meal, no matter how nutritious (and tasty) the Mediterranean Diet might be. To help you adopt healthier eating habits, we've created an assortment of protein bars unlike any you’ve ever tasted.

Discover Chocolate Almond, Chocolate Date, and Caffe Latte. Three delicious flavors to help you become a better you without sacrificing taste or nutrition.

The First Protein Bar for Wine Lovers
For many people, there are few sounds as satisfying as the pop of a cork. It marks the beginning of something: a night out, some well-deserved relaxation, or warmth and camaraderie with family or friends. And it usually marks the end of something too. A long day, a long trip, or a long project. And sometimes, if you’re lucky, it may just mark the end of the previous bottle.

When launching SimpleMD we wanted to incorporate the essence of the Mediterranean Diet into our products. That meant developing a protein bar made with extra virgin olive oil and red wine. We did this primarily because of the scientific studies that attribute many health benefits to those ingredients - in other words, a purely rational approach to building a better protein bar. And admittedly, perhaps a little bit boring.

As any behavioral psychologist will tell you, people rarely do (or not do) things for purely rational reasons. For further evidence, see ‘previous bottle,’ in the first paragraph.

So, while there are certainly rational reasons for drinking red wine (it has resveratrol!), the deeper reasons are all emotional, particularly when the quality is high and you can tell the difference. Good wine - in moderation of course - is absolutely transformative. The anticipation, the first sip, the immediate change of perspective… it’s what makes wine so enjoyable. The addition of family or friends only deepens the experience - and makes it absolutely Mediterranean by the way.

I’ll admit that ‘transformative’ is a big leap for a protein bar. One thing we’ve learned though, is that people who go out of their way to find great-tasting wine are also drawn to SimpleMD. These are the same people who exercise as much for the mental benefit as the physical, and who will engage in fitness activities so they feel good about that nightly glass of wine.

And while our mission is to make the Mediterranean Diet more accessible to today’s consumers, we’re also happy to learn that many of our customers are already living that lifestyle, and including our line of protein bars in their routine. They are active. They spend time with family and friends. They make smart food choices without sacrificing enjoyment. They love good coffee. And often, they end the day with a glass of wine; a simple reward that is anything but simple.
I’m probably describing you.

The reason we are making SimpleMD protein bars with red wine and EVOO is purely rational - those ingredients have bona fide health benefits. But the reason why people love them is purely emotional… and we’re fine with that. Better health shouldn’t feel like a sacrifice.
Here’s to the simple pleasures that are good for you, and just plain good… maybe not even in that order. Cheers!

The Official Bar of Better Living
The eternal quest for better living. It’s a big deal. Heck, Oprah has devoted her entire media empire to helping people live their best life. A noble cause we're 100% in favor of.
Better living is certainly hard to define. At the same time, it’s easy to understand, and generally speaking, it is a universally shared goal. For some, better living is the absence of stress, disease or even debt. And for others it is the freedom to travel, to be whimsical, or to enjoy good food and wine.

While better living might mean a million different things to a million different people, every definition has one thing in common: better living starts and ends in the mind, not in a restaurant or bank account. It’s only better – what ever IT is – because it makes you FEEL better; and that’s pretty cool because that puts you in total control of the outcome.

Better living is our daily inspiration at SimpleMD; and our ideal of better living is centered on the Mediterranean. Although not all of us have traveled throughout the region, we each have a view of not only what it looks like, but how it feels; and it’s pretty darn likely that you do too.

The Greek beaches, the Spanish olive groves, the Italian markets, the French countryside – you’ve seen them in movies and read about them in books; they’re embedded in our collective subconscious. Our shared perspective on the Mediterranean is uniquely positive, and based upon an aura of family, community, a slower pace, and an appreciation for small pleasures. In other words… the embodiment of better living.

While the Mediterranean is not perfect (see Economy, Greece), we think that their populace has certainly perfected the art of better living. And in our busy American lives, it feels like the right kind of lifestyle to tap into.

We’d be crazy to suggest that eating a SimpleMD bar is a substitute for enjoying a leisurely lunch at a seaside café with a warm breeze blowing or a stroll through an ancient village. On the other hand, we do think of our bars as a symbol of what’s possible. Just taking an extra moment to assess what you eat, to consider how you spend your time, and to slow things down and savor what’s happening right now is very Mediterranean, and exactly what SimpleMD is all about… and it’s what better living is about too.
